I think Travis's yellow from D&L is a good perspective example.

If you don't find something at the Carter Mansion or at the Samoa Cookhouse(joke), you'll likely find something crazy and/or bazarre in Ferndale, a few miles away.
Enjoy the nice drive. |

A cross between "cool" and "Julio Iglesias". It's something I made up and I'm hoping will catch on worldwide. Perhaps one day it will be added to the dictionary. That would be coolio iglesias!

Aha, thanks! I pondered along these lines during my commute yesterday and think I have a pretty decent idea. Now if only I can excecute.

We've been using that expression around my way since I was a nipper. Foolio Iglesias is another one for those moments of stupidity |

Oh no! As in nipper you mean more than ten years ago? I think I've been scooped.

Whoops, I think I may have confused "perspective" with "point of view" for my idea...
In photography is there a difference between the two?
====================
per·spec·tive ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pr-spktv)
n.
A view or vista.
A mental view or outlook: âIt is useful occasionally to look at the past to gain a perspective on the presentâ (Fabian Linden).
The appearance of objects in depth as perceived by normal binocular vision.
The relationship of aspects of a subject to each other and to a whole: a perspective of history; a need to view the problem in the proper perspective.
Subjective evaluation of relative significance; a point of view: the perspective of the displaced homemaker.
The ability to perceive things in their actual interrelations or comparative importance: tried to keep my perspective throughout the crisis.
The technique of representing three-dimensional objects and depth relationships on a two-dimensional surface.
adj.
Of, relating to, seen, or represented in perspective.

This might take a few days to get a satisfying shot.
I have one at the moment, but I don't think it would serve well in the challenge voting.

I'm having so much fun with this already. I've shot 3 different types of subjects already, and I already have two more I want to try to set up with people in them. So glad to be away from the more limiting subjects and on to a more open style.

I love all of the shots shown in this thread. I think we'll see lots of architecture. The one of the airplane is awesome and I had actually thought of that before seeing it, but with airport security it would be virtually impossible unless you lived near the flight path.
Hmmm - I'm trying to think a bit out of the box. I am hoping that people won't get bored with tons of shots looking up at buildings. That's one of my favorite type of images, but if there are tons of them, each one might lose their impact. Remember shoes? UGH |

I think I have come up with something outside the box. The way my luck runs though everyone has thought of it.

I love this shot, it's very interesting and creative. I want to try something very different, but along the same lines.
My quandry, as in my earlier post, is: Is this considered "Perspective"? I might label it "Point of View", but I'm hoping it also fits as a "Perspective" shot.

| I think there aren't going to be that many people differentiate between perspective and point of view. The lines is sort of hazy to me. I think the majority of voters will vote an interesting point-of-view shot the same as an interesting perspective shot, if there's even a difference. That's just my 2/100ths of a dollar bill (USD). |

Definitions of perspective on the Web:
* position: a way of regarding situations or topics etc.; "consider what follows from the positivist view"
* the appearance of things relative to one another as determined by their distance from the viewer
wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn
* Perspective when used in the context of vision and visual perception refers to the way in which objects appear to the eye based on their spatial attributes or dimension and the position of the eye relative to the objects. For example, the parallel lines of a railway track are perceived by the eye of a standing human being as meeting at a distant point at the horizon. A person standing at the corner of a building at ground level sees each of the walls recede to an imaginary point on the horizon.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(visual)
* Perspective in theory of cognition is the choice of a context or a reference (or the result of this choice) from which to sense, categorize, measure or codify experience, typically for comparing with another. One may further recognize a number of subtly distinctive meanings, close to those of point of view, Weltanschauung, paradigm.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(cognitive)
* Graphical perspective attempts to approximate on a planar surface an image as it is perceived by the eye. An exact replication is impossible. (See perspective projection distortion.)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)
* A system for creating an illusion of depth or three-dimensional space on a two-dimensional surface. Usually refers to linear perspective, which is based on the fact that parallel lines or edges appear to converge and objects appear smaller as the distance between them and the viewer increases. Atmospheric perspective (aerial perspective) creates the illusion of distance by reducing color saturation, value contrast, and detail in order to imply the hazy effect of atmosphere between the viewer and distant objects. Isometric perspective is not a visual or optical interpretation, but a mechanical means to show space and volume in
www.ackland.org/tours/classes/glossary.html
* A technique used to create the illusion of three-dimensional space and objects on the two-dimensional surface of a picture plane
www.irvingisd.net/macart/glossary.htm
* A system for representing three-dimensional objects viewed in spatial recession on a two-dimensional surface.
www.cde.ca.gov/be/st/ss/vaglossary.asp
* the appearance to the eye of objects in respect to their relative distance and position; the technique of representing the spatial relationship of objects as they might appear to the eye.
interactive2.usgs.gov/learningweb/textonly/explorer/geoglossary_maps.htm
* Sympathetic understanding or insight.
www.nmlites.org/standards/language/glossary.html
* Term for one major feature of a distributed reputation system. A reputation system can be said to provide perspective when the user can configure their own trust metric and give positive certifications to some users while excluding or providing negative certifications to other users. The end result is that the user is able to find high quality information that they care about and not something that was chosen by a mass of people.
www.newsmonster.org/glossary.html
* The way objects appear to the eye in terms of their relative positions and distances.
www.psu.edu/dept/inart10_110/inart10/film.html
* The means for representing deep space or three-dimensional forms on a flat surface. Atmospheric or aerial perspective achieves the illusion of depth through diminishing contrasts and increasingly blurred forms as distances increase. Linear or mathematical perspective relies upon real or implied diagonals that converge on a vanishing point or points, frequently at a horizon line.
www.nga.gov/education/american/aaglossary.shtm
* The style of picturing objects, in a drawing, as they would appear to the eye, with reference to relative distance or depth. Drawings of this type are often used by architects and builders.
www.yourwebassistant.net/glossary/p7.htm
* Various methods for suggesting three dimensions and spatial depth on a TWO-DIMENSIONAL surface. LINEAR PERSPECTIVE and ATMOSPHERIC PERSPECTIVE are the most commonly used methods.
www.artsmia.org/art_in_america/glossary.html
* A 2 dimensional drawing that represents a 3 dimensional view with vanishing points.
www.aiapvc.org/glossary.htm
* spatial depth. The method of expressing the illusion of distance and depth or a three-dimensional appearance on a two-dimensional surface.
www.curriculumsupport.nsw.edu.au/litnumsite/Lie/glossary.html
* the process of viewing something from a distinct vantage point; or, the impression one has of an object or landscape from particular vantage point
www3.newberry.org/k12maps/glossary/
* Eclipse terminology referring to a configuration in which Eclipse can run designed for a particular task. See the official Eclipse definition.
www.urbansim.org/docs/glossary.html
* The accurate representation of distance or depth as viewed by the human eye.
www.ncmoa.org/matisse/lessons/glossary.html
* One's aspect or view related to a subject or thing
www.mdk12.org/mspp/vsc/reading/bygrade/glossary.shtml
* Technique of depicting volumes and spacial relationships (a scene in three-dimensions) on a flat surface (an image having two dimensions).
photographytips.com/page.cfm/2062
* point of view, as in: From his perspective, it looks unfair.
www.business-words.com/dictionary/P_1.html
* a drawing projection that portrays the convergence of parallel lines in the visual field and the apparent reduction in size of distant objects; the closest drawing projection to what the human eye experiences
www.landscapemodeling.org/html/glossary/glossary.htm
* A technique for representing spatial relations and three-dimensional objects on a flat surface. Atmospheric perspective involves the gradual decrease in colour intensity to imitate distance. One-point linear perspective, developed in Italy in the fifteenth century, is a mathematical system that defines the vanishing point of the horizon.
www.ucalgary.ca/applied_history/tutor/endmiddle/glossary/artgloss2.html
* a point of view
collections.ic.gc.ca/peh/teachers/Glossary.html
* a way of representing distance (or depth) on a flat surface
www.huntington.org/Education/lessons/SG-vocab2.htm
* A system for creating the illusion of 3-D depth in 2-D images. Three types of visual perspective are: linear perspective--based on the illusion that parallel lines converge as their distance from the observer increases diminishing perspective--based on the apparent reduction in the size of objects as their distance from the observer increases atmospheric perspective--based on the apparent reduction of detail and colour intensity of objects as their distance from the observer increases
www.bced.gov.bc.ca/irp/fak7/apf4.htm
* The viewpoint from which an economic analysis is conducted (eg society, government, individual) which defines which costs and outcomes will be examined.
www.health.gov.au/internet/wcms/publishing.nsf/Content/health-pbs-general-pubs-pharmpac-glossary-glossp.htm
* n. A way of seeing things in relation to one another; point of view: From Jim's perspective, the team was playing well.

But it is helpful to have a "definition" albeit long and arduous to read. |

| Answering Strikeslip's qt: I'd just go for the 'other' definition of perspective, and who cares if there's those that don't get it or agree that it's relevant. Just goes to prove their lack of creativity if someone narrows their viewpoint to their own, and none other. The challenge doesn't specify which of the definitions to use, it simply asks for a striking image! Aim to impress yourself first I say. :) |

Thanks Caine! As a newbie, I think I will go with this, Everything else takes the fun and creativity out of photography and puts in scientific thinking! |
